THE LATe BISHOP POTTER.
A Lifo Full OF Good Works Brought I

A Life Full OF Good Works Brought to
a Close.
The death of Bishop Horatio Potter, OF New
York, which occurred last week, closed NJ.
episcopal career of thirty-two years. He wns
born at Beekman. now La Grange, DutchcSs
county, n. v, Feb. o, = He studied
Mt Union college and was graduated from
that institution Of learning in 1921, and n
year later was ordained a deacon by Bishop
Hobart, shortly afterward being ordained a
priest. At about the same time he WINS ap-
pointed professor of mathematics and natural
philosophy in Washington, now Trinity. go!
legc, Hartford, Conn, which chair he Hilol
for five years, in the meantime declining aus
invitation to become assistant minister of the
Monumental church at Richmond. Va. lnlSs'.
however, he decided 10 leave tue college and
accepted the Iectorship of 81. Peters church.
In ISL, he wns invited TO the presidency OF
Trinity college, but declined it, being unwill-
ing To be- turned aside from his pastoral
work. He remained rector of st. Peters
until 1871. when on the death Of Bishop
Wainwright he was chosen provisional bishop
Of the dioe>e of New York, being consecrate'l
in November Of that year. He could not.
however. take the full title of bishop while
hi, coadjutor, Bishop b. T.. Onderdonk, the
dioceSan. who had been suspended, was still
alive; but Mt his death, in 1851, Bishop Potter
succeeded 10 full jurisdiction. BY n singular
coincidence, Rev. DR., Alon1o Potter, brother
OF the subject OF this sketch, succeeded II
brother OF Bishop Onderdonk Of New York
ms bishop Of Pennsylvania.
During Bishop Potters incumbency the re-
sronsibilities and the interests of the diocese
OF New York increased enormously. the
diocese in 1851 included 81, 80 square miles,
10 clergynicn. 2ti churches, -. 40 commu
nicants and IA, oi0 Sunday school scholars. In
1875. when the diocese was divided the clergy
list had increased to 400, and there were 81
parishes, 81, - communicates and 3i,Avi
Sunday school scholars, while the contribu-
tions hnd increased to ssle,eil. Thus, while
the congregations had doubled, the collections
had nearly quadruried- In 1865 two large
nrcas were separated from the original diocese
to make the new dioceS.s of Albany and Long
Island Thus the territory over which Bishop
Potter presided was reduced to $500 square

New York being the chief in..the Union as re-

did so, realizing a handsome profit. Follow
